Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Internal medicine

Elena Cattaneo mainly focuses on Huntingtin, Huntington's disease, Cell biology, Neuroscience and Molecular biology. Elena Cattaneo has researched Huntingtin in several fields, including Mutant protein, Transcription and Programmed cell death. Her Huntington's disease research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Mutation, Endocrinology and Neurodegeneration.

The various areas that she examines in her Cell biology study include Genetics, Cell, Transgene, Cellular differentiation and Gene. Her work carried out in the field of Neuroscience brings together such families of science as Neurotrophic factors and Stem-cell therapy. Her Neurotrophic factors research includes elements of Disease and Neurotrophin.

Her most cited work include:

  • A Gene Network Regulating Lysosomal Biogenesis and Function (1355 citations)
  • Loss of Huntingtin-Mediated BDNF Gene Transcription in Huntington's Disease (1102 citations)
  • Niche-independent symmetrical self-renewal of a mammalian tissue stem cell. (768 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

Cell biology, Huntington's disease, Neuroscience, Huntingtin and Stem cell are her primary areas of study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Embryonic stem cell, Induced pluripotent stem cell, Cell culture, Cellular differentiation and Programmed cell death in addition to Cell biology. Her studies examine the connections between Huntington's disease and genetics, as well as such issues in Endocrinology, with regards to Receptor.

Her study in Neuroscience is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Progenitor cell, Neurotrophic factors, Disease and Transplantation. Her research integrates issues of Mutation and Molecular biology in her study of Huntingtin. Elena Cattaneo has included themes like Neurosphere and Immunology in her Neural stem cell study.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (35.32%)
  • Huntington's disease (30.11%)
  • Neuroscience (29.00%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Huntington's disease (30.11%)
  • Cell biology (35.32%)
  • Huntingtin (25.28%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Her primary scientific interests are in Huntington's disease, Cell biology, Huntingtin, Neuroscience and Cholesterol. Her Huntington's disease research entails a greater understanding of Internal medicine. Her Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cell culture, Transcription factor, Induced pluripotent stem cell, Spinocerebellar ataxia and Programmed cell death.

The Huntingtin Protein research Elena Cattaneo does as part of her general Huntingtin study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Normal function, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. Her Huntingtin Protein research integrates issues from Molecular biology, Neurodegeneration and Base sequence. The Neuroscience study combines topics in areas such as Progenitor cell, Stem cell and Transplantation.

Between 2013 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Mutant Huntingtin promotes autonomous microglia activation via myeloid lineage-determining factors (181 citations)
  • Faulty neuronal determination and cell polarization are reverted by modulating HD early phenotypes (62 citations)
  • Huntington's disease. (58 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Genetics

Her main research concerns Huntington's disease, Neuroscience, Huntingtin, Cell biology and Stem cell. Huntington's disease is a primary field of her research addressed under Internal medicine. Elena Cattaneo interconnects Neuroinflammation, Nuclear protein, Cellular differentiation and Transplantation in the investigation of issues within Neuroscience.

Her Huntingtin Protein study in the realm of Huntingtin connects with subjects such as Neuroectoderm. Her Huntingtin Protein research includes themes of Cancer research, Mutation, Neurotrophic factors, Neurodegeneration and Molecular biology. Her research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Induced pluripotent stem cell and Cell biology.
